Story mode games that can be lost
When story mode is selected, you will play several matches that do not have to be won. For example, when you lead Inter Milan with Shingo Aoi and play against Juventus with Gentile, you can have two different FMV sequences if you lose or win, but the game will continue. Matches that can be lost are:
#1 The second match when you control Inter Milan vs. Juventus
#2 The 3 matches against Real Japan Seven (RJ7).
If #1 was lost, you will not have the opportunity to meet the Street team during the story. Moreover, several new teams will not be available as Argentine, Italy, France, etc., when ending the story. Do not forget to save your part after winning a match.
Hidden teams playable after ending the game
France, Argentine, Italy, Germany, Japan, Inter Milan with a weak level (for the players as Pierre Leblanc in France' team for example) are available after finishing the whole game. Others teams such as the World team and the Street team can be used in Vs mode.
Play with the same team
To play with the same team cooperatively or against the CPU, replay the last match against the World team. Save the match versus RJ7 to avoid replaying all the matches. After watching the greetings and credits, go the versus mode and choose the same teams.
Edit team
Hold [L1] + [R1] and press [Square] + [Triangle] at the title screen. A sound will confirm correct code entry. An option to create, save and play with a custom team will appear at the title screen.
